Has anyone had any success using the new Sonubaits range?

I saw it advertised and when it came into my local shop I looked at it and found that it stank and was very high in oil. So I bought the spicy sausage and my mate got the cheesy garlic.

Well I have not caught anything on mine (using pellets on their own and wrapping the pellets in the matching paste) and my mate had only had a small chub!

Is this a case of the bait catching the angler or has someone had success?
